Follow IfcRelAdheresToElement so IfcSurfaceFeature road markings import #8375

IfcSurfaceFeature (e.g. road markings) adheres to a host element through
IfcRelAdheresToElement, a [1:1] cardinality hierarchical relationship in the
same family as aggregation, containment and nesting since IFC4.3. The spatial
traversal never followed it, so surface features had no resolvable parent or
container: on import they landed in the Unsorted collection instead of the
host's spatial collection, and were dropped entirely in DECOMPOSITION filter
mode.

Add get_adhered_element (feature to host) to the get_parent resolver chain and
walk HasSurfaceFeatures in get_decomposition, plus a get_surface_features helper
mirroring get_parts/get_contained. With get_parent resolving adherence,
get_container now returns the host's spatial container, so tool.Collector places
surface features under the host. Also follow HasSurfaceFeatures in the Bonsai
DECOMPOSITION filter path so they load in that mode.
